Lunar weapon DPS comparison

[Frain Breeze]

Thanks for posting this, it's an awesome quick reference.

Your note on the Lunar Flare is incorrect, though. Its projectiles will pass through solid blocks until they either hit a monster or reach the height you clicked.

 

[Varsia]

You forgot the Terrarian.

Ah yes.
I'll do that now, I guess.

 

[Varsia]

Alright, I added some stuff (The Terrarian) and some missing info (the Phantasm arrow thingy).

Wow, You propably put a lot of effort into this. Good for me, as I've been searching for something like this. Could I use it in my suggestions as comparison, to balance things? It'd make it all much easier.

Spoiler: Found a mistake

Deals a 25-per-tick DoT debuff.

Per second. Tick in Terraria is 1/60 of second, so 25/tick would be... 1500 DPS. Hah, I'd love to see such debuff, actually it would be propably first usefull DoT effect

It's not per-second, I know that much.
Might be twice per second? Someone needs to time it.

And, sure, do that.
I need to do the other things (Ranger without stealth).
but, I doubt I'd be able to do that now. I gotta go tomorrow, and won't be able to play til October :-/

daybreak debuff does roughly 800-1000 per second at max stack, from what I tested.

Alright, I'll add that.

Well, I tried it and it seems to do about 4-5 hits per second, not more.

Alright, so from that I guess we can work out that it's about 100-125 DPS, and @General Milky 's test is correct with that.
Thanks.
I'll make sure you get credit.

EDIT: All information is updated now.
Thanks guys.

Great overview of endgame weapons!
Altrough for me its more about how they play then how much damage they do, its still nice to know

 

[Varsia]

Alright, people, I have a quick little request.
If someone could somehow get the DPSes of summoner weapons, and the DPSes of Lunar ranged weapons without the stealth mode, that'd be great.
I can't really play Terraria until around October-ish, so I can't really do it.

So... The phantasm was nerfed? Was the damage recorded before or after the nerf?

 

[Varsia]

I'm pretty sure it was made after.
